All aboard!
A truly fabulous exhibit opening at New York’s South Street Seaport Museum, about the SS Normandie.
Movie stars, art deco up the wazoo, fabulous vintage photos, plus stylish travel– it’s all here. The exhibit opens to the public on February 25th.
Decadence. Definition:
Lalique created the famed walls of eglomisé glass and elegant glass columns which filled the dining room and Grand Salon, as well as the magnificent dining room service wear of the S.S. Normandie, much of which is now part of the permanent collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art. His brilliant eye and skilled hand were also responsible for some of the smallest appointments aboard the ship. Lalique crafted the small crystal bottles that housed the Jean Patou fragrance created specifically for Normandie’s passengers.
Oh, and the souvenir t-shirt is very cute too.
